Insight Into a Growing Health Threat
Mycotoxins, produced by certain mold species, are some of the most prevalent toxins and can come from many sources including buildings, vehicles, and food. These compounds have been recognized as a growing global health concern due to their acute and chronic adverse health impacts. Mycotoxin exposure can be difficult to diagnose without proper testing due to vague and often varied symptoms.
The MycoTOX Profile is Mosaic Diagnostics’ most comprehensive assessment of mycotoxins. Our state-of-the art urine-based assay accurately assesses levels of 11 different mycotoxins, including Aflatoxin M1, Ochratoxin A, Zearalenone, and Trichothecenes. The MycoTOX Profile has been designed to support clinicians uncover mycotoxin exposure – and guide a therapeutic strategy for prevention and treatment.
Why Test for Mycotoxins?
Mycotoxins are toxic metabolites produced by certain types of molds that are pervasive in both indoor and outdoor environments. Common routes of exposure can come from many sources including inhalation, dermal contact and ingestion. Attention is increasingly given to growth of molds, fungi and bacteria in water-damaged buildings, vehicles, when excessive moisture is present in drywall, paint, wallpaper, carpeting, etc. along with ingestion of contaminated food sources including corn, cereals, coffee, milk, meat, eggs, fruits, apples, tree nuts and spices.
Mycotoxins cause adverse health effects that may be acute and chronic in nature that can manifest in various and ambiguous symptoms, the degree of impact can vary depending on the age, sex, genetics, and underlying health status of the exposed individual, as well as the duration and dose magnitude of the offending substance and their synergistic effects with other mycotoxins. Providers assessing symptomatic patients with known mold exposure or with an environmental history concerning mold exposure, will also need to consider the concomitant presence of mycotoxins and their potential negative health impacts as proper testing is essential for accurate treatment.
The MycoTOX profile is specifically designed to help healthcare practitioners identify mycotoxin exposure and guide a targeted prevention and treatment plan.
How Does the MycoTOX Profile Measure Mycotoxins?
The MycoTOX profile utilizes state of the art liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technology to ensure high specificity (or fewer false positive results) and capture free (unconjugated) mycotoxin presence even at low levels, this is crucial as mycotoxins, even at low levels of exposure, can cause serious health problems. Our test is so sensitive that we can detect amounts of many compounds in parts per trillion (ppt). To account for variations in fluid intake, we utilize creatinine correction to ensure accurate and reliable results. By utilizing LC-MS/MS technology, we can precisely identify all our analytes, reducing the risk of false positives. With the MycoTOX Profile, you can trust that you are receiving the most accurate and reliable results possible.
